How to understand calorie and energy density. The average person eats 3 to 5 pounds of food per day. So, if they were to eat as much in almonds as they could, that would be about 5 pounds of almonds. Since there are about 23 almonds in an ounce, that would be a total of 1840 almonds in a day.
In addition, almonds are an excellent source of vitamin E, manganese, and magnesium. The only caveat to eating almonds is that they are calorie rich. Excess intake of calories can cause weight gain, an independent risk factor for various diseases, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, when eating almonds, you should exercise portion control.
